I know Senator Thune will look just striking on Capitol Hill in Bison Green and Yellow. While I am confident the Bison will win Saturday’s game, we look forward to welcoming the Jackrabbits to Fargo for this annual matchup. The two schools’ rivalry reflects the deep bond our states share. Mikey and I look forward to being at the game to cheer on NDSU. Go Bison!Senator John Hoeven shared a link.
“We in North Dakota have shown clearly that states can promote strong economic growth and job creation, while at the same time, practicing good environmental stewardship. Through both legislation and direct engagement with federal officials..., we are working in Washington to create the kind of legal, tax and regulatory environment that will grow our energy industry and create true American energy independence. I believe we can accomplish this within five to seven years with the right approach.”See MoreSenator John Hoeven shared a link.

Our state has an 800-year supply of lignite coal – the second largest proven reserve in the world – making initiatives like the one we’re showcasing today one of the most important innovations anywhere in the world to secure our energy futu...re. Efforts like this, as well as recycling efforts, clearly underscore the fact that a true all-of-the-above strategy for American energy independence must include lignite coal if we want to make our nation truly secure and economically vibrant.See More- ActivityNovemberPeople Who Like This25
